Samsung Galaxy Note 4 camera review

14 Apr

The Note 4 is the latest iteration of Samsung’s top-end line of so-called ‘phablets’. In terms of design the new model is very close to its predecessor, the Galaxy Note 3, but under the hood, things have been upgraded significantly. A 1/2.6-inch 16MP BSI CMOS image sensor and F2.2 maximum aperture are shared with the Galaxy S5 but the Note 4 has gained an optical image stabilization system which makes it the first Samsung smartphone with this feature. Read our full review at connect.dpreview.com

A Note to Mobile Phone Browsers/Readers

03 Jan
Please note that for the time being I had to turn off Strobist’s default mobile template for phone browsers.

The mobile template was not compatible with the new archive-facing site transition. I do understand this gives a non-optimal view for some, and for that I apologize.

So, if you have bookmarked the mobile version of the site and are viewing it thusly, you’ll probably henceforth see a confusing hodgepodge of list posts. You should navigate to the non-mobile version, and bookmark that site.

Thanks very much,
David

Samsung’s Galaxy Note 3 makes good on the promise of the ‘phablet’ thanks to its huge, high-resolution screen and its muscular processing. But how does it fare as a camera? We put the super-sized smartphone through its photographic paces on connect.dpreview.com.

We’ve just posted our review of the Samsung Galaxy Note II on connect.dpreview.com. The Note II comes with a large 5.5-inch screen but is it just a phone for users who like it big or can it offer advantages over its smaller-sized siblings in the mobile imaging context? We did some finger stretches and then put the Note II to work as both an image capture and editing tool. Click through to go to the full review.

She Saved the Note!

21 Dec

Anyone following my work lately knows this story, but for those that don’t here’s a quick recap.

I was going to lunch with my good friend Ryan Muirhead (find his photos on facebook) when we both spotted Brynlee at nearly the same instant.

To be frank, we were stunned.  Brynlee had one of those perfectly exotic faces that photographers dream about.  Ryan and I rounded the corner and both just stopped, he said these exact words, “You’re going to take care of that right?”

I just nodded…

Approaching random girls is a delicate art, one that requires tact and class… it’s best if you have a business card then you could just hand it over and immediately you come across as professional.  I haven’t updated my business card design in years and years but it’s still pretty cool.

I, however, never have business cards with me.  Ever.  If you want my business card you’re going to have to come to my house where I keep the box of 1,000 cards… otherwise sorry. Before you judge me you should keep in mind photography isn’t my profession, so I usually have bigger fish to fry.

So I opted for the extraordinarily professional note left on the back of a contest-entry form (which was on the counter next to the register).  It actually took a couple drafts… the first one I wrote with the tiny golf-scoring pencil that was next to the entry box and it was completely smudged by the time I finished.

So I went to my car, rustled around for a pen, came back and re-wrote the note.  This time it was a masterpiece.  She emailed me a few days later and the rest is history, Brynlee has definitely become one of my favorites to work with!

Well, this week she came around for another shoot, this time bearing some nostalgia.  Ahhhh… there’s even a little pin-hole from hanging on her wall!

For once in my entire life I’m glad I took Ryan’s advice and pulled into Taco Time for a random Saturday lunch!
